A collection of blank Honorable Discharge papers for female service members of the Armed Forces. These services branches include the Army's Women's Army Corps (WACO, formally known as Women's Army Auxiliary Corps WAD), the Navy's Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service (WAVE), the Marine's United States Marine Corps Women's Reserve (MCWR), and SPAR, the United States Coast Guard (USCG) Women's Reserve. These branches were created when several different laws were signed into action in 1941 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. These laws allowed for acceptance of women into the reserve as commissioned officers and at the enlisted level, but it was only effective for the duration of the war plus six months. As such most of the branches of the female services were demobilized after WWII, though some service women stayed on to help the Armed Forces in a variety of capacities. This collection of blank Honorable Discharge papers is wonderfully bound into a large format 5 chamber backstop book with decorative stamp on the backstop. The interior covers have marble decoration. The papers are divided by tabs denoting the each branch of the Armed Forces: "ARMY - WACO", "NAVY - WAVE", "MARINE", and "Coast Guard - SPAR". (Although the Marine's United States Marine Corps Women's Reserve or MCWR is not mention by name, it has been inferred based on the presence of the other women's branches of the Armed Forces.) The blank forms are divided up into quantities of 25, and bound by a brown paper band. Therefore WACO has a total of 75 blank pages (in addition to some unbounded forms), WAVE has 125 forms, MCWR has 75 forms, and SPAR has 50 forms. The exterior of the book shows minimal wear. The interior covers has some small stains near the binding mostly due to glue deterioration. The section of WACO blank forms that is not bound by a strip of brown paper has approximately 13 forms, as well as small torn segments that serve as evidence of where forms had been torn out. The rest of the forms are in great condition.
